- Dr. Nicolas Zwillinger, Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery
Breast ptosiscorrection, also known as abreast lift(a breast lift without implants), is a cosmetic surgical procedure that lifts and reshapes sagging breasts by tightening the skin; no breast tissue is removed.
The areola may sag along with the breast or remain in its normal position.
At the same time, the patient may choose to increase the overall volume of her breasts through breast augmentation using implants or breast lipofilling.
The procedure can improve the position and appearance of the breasts. Excess skin is removed. At the same time, the areola and nipple are repositioned to achieve a symmetrical result.
Types of anesthesia for this procedure: General or local anesthesia
Duration of the session: 1.5 to 2.5 hours
Type of hospitalization: Outpatient or overnight stay at the clinic
AtDr. Nicolas Zwillinger’s practice, we believe that your scar is an integral part of the final outcome of your surgery. That is why we offer the UrgoTouch® laser, which helps improve the appearance of scars, although results vary from patient to patient. This laser system is fully automated, safe, and is applied painlessly in a single session in the operating room. Many patients have used UrgoTouch®to promote better healing.
